Purple Buddha

Purple Buddha is a sativa dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) strain that has quietly built a dedicated following. This infamous bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 16-22% on average, with 0.9% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

Users describe the Purple Buddha high as an immediate uplifting cerebral rush that sharpens focus and sets off waves of creative energy, keeping you motivated and sociable without weighing down the body. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, Purple Buddha is often chosen for managing chronic fatigue and low mood, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

Purple Buddha has a distinctive chocolate and lemon flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a lemon finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has chunky popcorn-shaped dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, thin orange hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

In the garden, Purple Buddha is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Buddha family — see Buddha Walk and Buddha's Delight for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
